Answer: The atoms in a gas move at high speed.
The atoms in a gas spread in all directions.
A gas is a state of matter in, which atoms remains in a constant motion, they do not stick together. They are free and can move in all directions. The gas molecules expands to fill the available space. Hence, they can change shape and volume. The gas atoms being in a molecular state moves fast in high speed to break away from each other, to remain in a free state.
Most of the marine animals have a stream lined body, which means, they have a sharp and pointed at the front. The pointed front of the organism allow to cut the resistance of the water. In case, the body is not pointed at the front and it is blunt, the water current and flow would resist the movement of the organism further. So, for the locomotion purpose, it is important to have a streamlined body. Further smooth and hair less body also decrease the resistance during the movement in the water.
A Cuticle, because a cuticle is waxy and it repels water and covers outside of a plant. Unlike a seed, phloem, ad xylem. If you think about your nails wouldn't you think cuticle as well?
